This colour is ideal for people with naturally brown or red hair. It has strong red tones.

It is also a wonderful and safe alternative for pregnant mums who would like to continue colouring during pregnancy* as they contain nothing but certified organic goodness.

Me Time required

Organic hair colours need time to deposit colour on your hair. Please allow the following amount of time for your colour treatment.

Non Grey coverage : 1 hr

Grey coverage : 2 to 3 hrs

Amount of product required

Short hair & root touch ups – 1/2 pack

Medium hair – 1 pack

Long hair – 1 to 1.5 packs

Super long hair – 2 to 3 packs

Thick hair – will need to add an extra 1/4 pack for short hair and 1/2 (short to medium) to 3/4 pack (for long hair)

*Please note – repeated use will see your colour become richer and in some cases darker. Once you achieve the colour shade you like on the lengths, simply apply to the roots only and do a full application every 4th or 5th time to boost the colour at the ends. This will save time and product and ensure you have an even colour all over.

Ingredients

Lawsonia inermis, Indigofera Tinctoria, Cassia obovata, Aloe barbadensis.

 

Important

*We recommend a strand test to determine desired processing time and final colour result. Colour resistant hair will require the longer period for processing time. Not recommended for people who wish to bleach or lighten their hair blonde in the future. Strand test instructions can be found here
